We offer device programmers for PIC microcontrollers in a variety of configurations. All of our programmers include the meProg programming software, which supports over 500 Microchip devices.

melabs U2 Programmer
USB interface - starting at $79.95

When printer ports began to be replaced by more modern interfaces, we developed the technology for a USB programmer that requires no external power supply. The second generation of this programmer, the U2, has proven to be our most popular product ever. It is amazingly reliable and versatile.

melabs Field Programmer
Stand-alone operation from an SD card - from $119.95

The melabs Field Programmer uses the same proven technology that made the U2 a success. We added the intelligence needed to read files from SD memory cards and execute the programming process at the push of a button. The file is created with the same software that operates our tethered programmers, but the Field Programmer is free to roam without a connection to a PC.

The EPIC Programmer started it all and holds a special place in our hearts. It is not, however, recommended for most users. We will continue to offer it, but our guess is that parallel ports will disappear completely from new computers within a few years. The EPIC won't work with a USB-to-Parallel converter.
